My dad was nineteen when he moves to California. He had won the green card lottery which helped him to move to California. He was alone and scared he didn't know what to do. There was a family in California that was supposed to take him in and help him adapt but the family didn't help him. He was left on the streets in a bad area. He had to figure out everything on his own. He hustled a lot to get to the place he is in now. He is now a successful business man with two kids and a wife. He never fails to show us our culture. He teaches me how to work hard. He taught me how to cook Nigerian food. He also provides me with Nigerian clothes. I am so proud of how much work he has done throughout his life.
